The Wackness

Quirky indie character study about a naïve young drug dealer who begins dating a girl who also happens to be the daughter his psychiatrist. Ben Kinglsey plays Dr. Squires, a man who accepts pot in exchange for his sessions with the young boy. To say Dr. Squires is unethical, is an understatement. Mentally he’s an adolescent and the odd friendship he forms with his patient isn’t particularly compelling or realistic.

One Response to “The Wackness”

I actually forgot about him forming much of a relationship with his counselor; what I remember is him falling for a girl too fast, and then learning to conquer his emotions at the end. Similar as Tom did in “500 Days of Summer”.
